Amanda Schweickert, 28, is looking at felony charges after deputies in New York found her driving with an obviously fake license plate.

Erie County Sheriff’s deputies spotted the vehicle in Springville, New York, with no front plate and on the back, a piece of cardboard painted to look like an authentic license plate, according to a Facebook post.

The Sheriff’s Office said Schweickert was charged with possessing a forged instrument and driving with a suspended license.

"The fake license plate was constructed of cardboard and painted to replicate a New York plate," The post reads, "The homemade plate was seized and placed into evidence."

The woman’s bail was set at $400.
